There is a terrible battle for money, visible in the economies of all the countries, in the business of big companies, in the taxation system of every nation etc. Less visible is the battle for money between Christ and Satan. It doesn’t mean that Jesus or His adversary need our money for their personal benefit. They don’t need our money for that. But they both know that where our treasure is, there will be our heart as well!!! Sometimes we don’t have full freedom to decide what happens with our money (if we speak about taxes paid to the state and how the money is used), but in many cases we decide what we do with the money we earn or receive from other sources.   

  Tithe And The Battle For Heart And Money

When we spend money just or mostly for our benefit, there is a spiritual danger associated with this. Beyond the battle for our money, there is a bigger battle, an invisible one, for our hearts. On this planet there are so many actions, projects. All of them have different sources of inspiration but there are only two big sources: God or His adversary. Our decision to support those projects inspired by God will be a blessing for ourselves and for many others, beneficiaries of those projects. Our duty and responsibility is to decide where our “treasure” goes. It will have an eternal impact for everybody.
